## Possible Solutions
Line 2 should use the argument total_tags in the zip method, not tags.

Thank you so much for reporting this issue @smithers! I will take a look into it and will close this issue and give you attribution once it is fixed.

In the step by step code for this chapter the code looks like this:

tags = new_releases.xpath('.//div[@class="tab_item_top_tags"]')
total_tags = []
for tag in tags:
    total_tags.append(tag.text_content())
tags = [tag.split(", ") for tag in tags] 

In the last line i have to change tags to total_tags so that it works. tags = [tag.split(", ") for tag in total_tags]

But in your overview at the end of the chapter the first line doest exist like that, no total_tags list:

tags = []
for tag in new_releases.xpath('.//div[@class="tab_item_top_tags"]'):
    tags.append(tag.text_content())

tags = [tag.split(', ') for tag in tags]

I hope that helps.
